Mark’s Camp Accommodation
One of the appealing features of Mark’s Camp is the abundance of birdlife which can be viewed from the rooms, pool deck (Mark’s Camp has two swimming pools) or central lounge area. Blessed with a large waterhole in front of the lodge, it is not uncommon for guests to see antelope, giraffe, elephant and predators coming to the waterhole! Between game drives, guests can relax in the large lounge, bird watch from the viewing decks or laze around one of the two swimming pools. Mark’s Camp has an outdoor dining “boma” for fireside dinners and open-air brunches, as well as a gracious indoor dining area.
The bar area is elevated and guests have great views of the waterhole from the safety of the bar! The overnight rate at Mark’s Camp includes accommodation, 2 game drives (evening & morning), all meals and all drinks at Mark’s Camp and on game drives. To get the most out of your safari experience we recommend that you spend 2 or 3 nights with us.
Mark’s Camp Wildlife
Wildlife Experience
We pride ourselves on our ability to offer you the best in Big 5 game viewing. At Lalibela we are blessed to have phenomenal sightings of the Big 5 as well as the various other species that visitors so enjoy seeing.
In addition to the larger, more known wild animals, Lalibela has various lesser-known species and our rangers delight in exposing our guests to these – the curious spring hare is as fascinating as the mighty African elephant!
Apart from the wide variety of wildlife, there is a plethora of birdlife to be found on Lalibela – the keen birder can expect to spot birds on safari, at the lodge or even from the viewing deck of their room!
Your Safari Experience
Exciting Game Drives – Early morning and sunset game drives in an open vehicle with an experienced game ranger bring you face to face with a multitude of game species.
Excellent Game Viewing – Experience a multitude of game species ranging from the mighty elephant, lion, rhino and buffalo to the tiny blue duiker and rock hyrax.
Lalibela Game Reserve is also home to cheetah, hyena, hippo, giraffe, zebra, warthog and numerous species of antelope, such as eland, kudu, bushbuck and wildebeest. On thrilling sunset drives under the vast African sky, we also search for the elusive bat-eared fox, aardvark, black-backed jackal, aardwolf and the curious spring hare.
Wide Open Spaces – Lalibela Game Reserve comprises 7,500 hectares (18,500 acres) of valley bushveld, savannah grassland, fynbos, riverine forest and acacia woodland, all coming together to make Lalibela the ideal home for the Big 5 in Southern Africa.

Other features of the children’s programme include arts and crafts, bush skills, African stories, special child-friendly food and babysitting during certain hours (including adult dinner and game drives).
Each family is different and children require varying degrees of attention, which is why the emphasis at Lalibela is to be as flexible as possible to ensure memorable family holidays.
Children of all ages are welcome at MARK’S CAMP which has 4 twin rooms on one side of the lodge and 4 family rooms on the other side of the lodge.

Mark’s Camp Tripadvisor
From my first enquiry to the Lalibela reservations office to the end of our stay there, we could not have more pleased. Tania and the other members of the reservations office were very helpful in answering initial questions and sorting out the booking. We stayed at Tree Tops and when we arrived, we were warmly greeted by Zoe. She and her team provide a great atmosphere and we really enjoyed our stay there. Our thatched safari tent was spacious, with great views down through the valley. We even had our own spa pool on one of our balconies. The food was excellent and plentiful, with a variety of dishes provided. We stayed for three nights which meant we had six great game drives. Courtney was our Ranger guide and we could not have had a better person. He was always very pleasant and enthusiastic. He communicated well and his knowledge of the animal and plant life that we saw seemed limitless. His ability to find animals was uncanny and on one occasion he even spotted a lioness eating her kill across a valley! We also had a lesson on the Southern Hemisphere sky at night. This was our first visit to a game reserve and we thoroughly enjoyed it. We would recommend Lalibela wholeheartedly. Thank you for a great experience. – Failand
The staff cannot do enough, the food was beautiful, the location and rooms are stunning.
And we were lucky enough to have six amazing game drives. Highly recommend to stay here. Holly and Matthew-York 2014. – Hollydyson1
Great stay, really highly recommended. Ranger (Ruan) was superb and particularly knowledgable, and we saw something big on each of the 4 game drives. We stayed in Marks camp (room 3) which was big and clean. The most memorable of the stays in our 2 and a half weeks in South Africa. – dandstink
